This is very good. The drops dripping from the beak is very nice. Very good details! Thanks for sharing.

Nice detail and I really like the water drop, Scott. I do wish there were a touch more room for the invisible legs.

Well handled in processing. A bit cramped in the frame, especially the bottom, with not enough room for the virtual legs. Realizing this was shot with a prime which gave you no room to back off, makes it understandable. Was this fill flash?

Love that water droplet and the colors here... not sure how I feel about such a dark BG (leaning toward not liking it)

Excellent image. I agree with giving the legs more room. I think I might like to see it a bit lighter, not sure as I do like the dark background. But, if it were lightened a bit the droplet might show more clearly.
